Skip fires his trusty crossbow at the severely wounded Ogre and his bolt embeds itself deep between its ribs. Ogre begins to make an awful weezing sound as it attempts to lift its massive club for another strike but then collapses, nearly landing on Kuori as it fell.
Yessica having recovered thanks to Skip attacks Ogre2 from behind as it concentrates on its fight with Noa
Her whip lashes out Attack: 22 Damage: 5
and then she moves in close, to attempt to ram her short sword into its kidney Attack: 20 Damage: 6
Her whip wraps around the ogres neck and draws him backwards a bit as she rams her short sword true, up to its hilt in ogre flesh. The ogre staggers a bit and falls to its knees before finally laying down completely in the courtyard atop the corpses of his orc comrades.
Gotemash stows his quarterstaff, and draws out his Hammer and Sickle, looks at the retainers taking up position inside the crypt, chuckles, and says Ma always said you gotta know when to hold 'em.
I like the craftsmanship of this place, too. Follow me.
Perception at the left doorway - 23
If there's nothing at the doorway then proceeding down the hallway to the end stopping just short of the bend.
As you move down the corridor you can see small cups embedded into the wall filled with oil and a wick that is lit. They are strange in that the wick isnt burnt in the least and the oil doesnt seem to diminish. As you approach the bend you start to notice the floor getting dusty and some cobwebs forming. The area around the vend appears to be dark with none of the sconces lit.
((I'm pretty sure both ogres are down and Orc 5 is moving around the outer wall. We could capture the turd. XD ))

Lol, I thought I had posted, must not have sent it...
Both ogres are down, all the Orcs except 5 are dead in the courtyard, none of you can see where orc5 is currently positioned, not even the goblins in tower2. You are all sweating and tired from battle and the unknown number of orcs that have not exited shrine seem content to wait for you inside the shrine.
Gotemash - approaching the bend stops, looks and listens, and slides around the bend with his back to the wide part of the bend weapons ready. He's not ignoring Pete, rather instead preferring discretion to repartee just now.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"You all ready to finish this?" Bree calls out to her companions. When they indicate yes, she will move to the shrine...
Bree will move up to the Shrine and find a position she can see inside. She will then cast sleep on the largest group of orcs she can see inside... Putting 24 HP worth of them to sleep...
(Or maybe none of them to sleep with that roll... lol.)
Skip would move to each of his companions. "Are you alright? Do you need any help? Maybe we should take a short break and have a small snack before continuing forward" He would say with a look of nervousnes on his scruffy plump face.
"Oh come on, you got them on the ropes." Bree will say with a grin. she is clearly enjoying this, even though she has not done damage to anyone herself directly. "Once inside I definitely think someone needs to find the leader and try to talk to him about his manners..."
As you peer down the hallway with your dark vision you can see a door at the end of the hallway with some kind of carving on it. From this distance you can make out any details. You also can tell the middle of the hallway opens up into a rectangular chamber for about 30' of the hallway. It's too dark to make out the size of the chamber.
As bree creeps around trying to find a place to see inside she finds the window her treesym had been hanging out at. None of the orcs are visible through the window, but she can make out some shadows. A little bit further around she finds some loose stone stacked to fill in a space in the wall. The Orcs must have tried a quick repair job when they first entered the Shrine.
( everyone that wishes to reposition themselves, please post the coordinate you wish to move to and let me know what plan you wish to enact. I will post for Perzy'S after I sleep for a bit. I work overnights.)
[OOC @ DM: What coordinate is the "repaired" hole in the wall?]
With a statuesque silence, Kuori surveys the field of dead combatants before briskly walking over toward the majority of the group."Do not let your guards down, yet. This skirmish isn't over. Bree Hill, please exercise some patience. We have the advantage of our success here, but they have a defensible position. With the rest of their force locked away, we thus find ourselves at a stalemate - mostly. Your familiar could locate the last orc outside of the shrine for us, yes?" Moving toward the wall that Bree is currently near, Kuori spots the damaged portion of its stonework.
Nodding to herself, she calls for her companions. "Noa Gala-Vahn, Perzy'S! Could one of you assist me in breaking through this pile of rubble once we begin our siege? That way, while the goblins are acting as our rear guard, we can strike from two different angles, one of which they are most likely less prepared to guard."

Peter follows Gotemash, the tip of his quarterstaff still alit. But where is the light ahead coming from?
"Dreadful stonework" he grumbles.
He keeps an eye out for traps, trapdoors, peepholes, and hazards in the stonework. Perception 10

Tibby sees how awesome Skip's cross bow is and starts looking for one.

Daishi lights a torch and peers down the hallway.
Did tibby find a crossbow? And he will position himself behind skip, using him as a human shield.

Peter follows Gotemash's lead, sliding around the bend in the same manner, the tip of his quarterstaff still alight with a magical glow.
He pauses to jot down a few comments in his notebook.

The repaired portion of the wall is at p19. The map doesnt show a repair, just a hole.. I will upload an updated map soon as everyone picks a spot.
